About this home
With big updates & character, you don’t want to miss this one! Let’s go over the updates first; 2024 new roof & skylights, 2023 new maintenance free fence, 2022 new refrigerator, 2021 new water heater, 2019 new sewer line, 2017 new furnace & A/C. All that plus the stunning architecture of this home set it apart from every other house on the block. Step through the tiled entrance and the interior opens into a vaulted great room with tongue-and-groove wood ceilings, original parquet hdwd flooring, and the new skylights that pour in natural light. A double-sided fireplace anchors the space, and the open layout flows into a window-wrapped room with built-in shelving. The eat-in kitchen matches the character throughout: terracotta tile, wood ceiling, high-end gas range, and a hand-set glass tile backsplash in blues and greens. A spiral staircase leads to a finished lower level, where you'll find a primary suite with a walk-in closet. Plus a spa-like bath, soaking tub, walk-in shower, & dual sinks. Also, a home gym & dedicated laundry room on this level. On the main floor, the bedroom currently used as a home office connects directly to a 3/4 bath with dual-head & a double-sink vanity. 2nd floor hosts a third bedroom with its own attached half bath. The 3-car garage adds rare storage/parking for the area, and a stunning private backyard gives you room to relax or entertain outside of the public eye. Located in the heart of one of Saint Paul's most walkable neighborhoods, Grand Avenue's shops and restaurants sit just blocks away. Popular esteemed schools and colleges along with historic Summit Avenue are all within easy reach. Downtown Saint Paul and Minneapolis are just minutes out. This is a home with real character & updates in a neighborhood people stay in for decades.

How SODL buyer credits work

- Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
- Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
- Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing
A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
